“Melissa is exceptional! I got a Hydrafacial and dermaplaning, and my skin has never looked or felt better. I’ve received countless compliments since my appointment. Not only did every product she used smell amazing, but they also felt incredible on my skin and made the entire experience so relaxing and luxurious. She’s not only the sweetest person, but she truly knows what she’s doing. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an esthetician!”

“I had such an amazing experience getting my HydraFacial. My skin felt so healthy and had the most incredible glow afterward. I suffer from adult acne and it felt so good to get a professional to asses my skin. The entire experience was so relaxing, and Melissa was incredibly knowledgeable, she explained everything thoroughly before we got started which made me feel so comfortable. As a mom of 3 who never takes time for herself, I even ended up taking a nap during the treatment, and it was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend Melissa!”

“What a treat! Melissa was wonderful. Very sweet, skilled and sensitive. I did a hydro facial for the first time and my skin was refreshed and glowing afterwards. Melissa knows her stuff, and is very ready to give advice if asked but not pushy at all. The ambience is great, clean and relaxing. Highly recommend!”

Melissa was very kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Her space was clean and inviting—I felt comfortable and cozy the entire time. I will definitely be back!”

Questions

Skincare decisions should feel clear.

What should I expect during my first visit to EBSKIN?

At EBSKIN, your journey to long-term skin health begins with education, precision, and personalized care. First-time clients will receive a complimentary clinical skin assessment as part of their initial visit. During this comprehensive diagnostic analysis, our licensed master esthetician will thoroughly evaluate your skin’s current condition, barrier health, and specific concerns. Based on this in-depth evaluation, we will design a fully bespoke, custom treatment plan specifically engineered for your unique skin needs.

I am not sure which treatment is right for my skin. What should I book?

If you are seeking professional direction and are unsure where to start, we highly recommend booking our Custom Clinical Facial or the First-Time Client Hydrafacial. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, these sessions serve as the perfect entry point for tailored corrective care. After mapping your skin during your assessment, your master esthetician will curate a medical-grade protocol on the spot—utilizing targeted exfoliation, precision extractions, and deep hydration to restore your specific barrier needs.

What is the difference between the Deluxe and Platinum Hydrafacial?

Both clinical tiers utilize patented Vortex-Fusion® technology to deeply cleanse, painlessly extract impurities, and deliver antioxidants and peptides deep into the skin for lasting hydration. Deluxe Hydrafacial: Elevates the standard protocol by infusing a custom medical-grade Corrective Booster tailored to target specific concerns like dullness or aging. It concludes with professional LED Light Therapy to reduce inflammation and stimulate collagen production. Platinum Hydrafacial: As the most comprehensive and luxurious treatment in the portfolio, this tier includes the entire Deluxe protocol but begins with a crucial Lymphatic Drainage detoxification process. This step reduces facial puffiness and eliminates toxins, creating a sculpted, lifted appearance before we even touch the skin's surface.

What makes CellStory Liquid Microneedling different from traditional microneedling?

Traditional microneedling relies on mechanical injury with needles to trigger collagen production. CellStory is a cutting-edge Korean therapy that achieves profound skin renewal without needles or the associated downtime. It utilizes proprietary Microspear® technology—naturally derived sea sponge spicules—to deliver 50,000 microscopic channels into the skin. These channels remain active for up to 72 hours, creating a pathway for powerful growth factors and active ingredients to penetrate deeply. This advanced process accelerates cellular turnover, clears deep congestion, and promotes a flawless, refined "Glass Skin" finish.
